Hunter Biden is set to testify behind closed doors at Capitol Hill in front of the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees as part of the impeachment inquiry against his father. The deposition, although not recorded, will have a transcript released to the public. House Republicans had been pushing for Hunter Biden to testify, threatening him with criminal contempt if he refused. He is considered a significant witness in the inquiry.
The focus of the questioning is expected to be on Hunter Biden's business dealings, particularly his involvement with the Ukrainian energy company Burisma and his ventures in China. The Justice Department had previously investigated him for tax crimes related to these business activities.
